Taking a break from their onslaught against one another. Alexander and the Swordsmen of the Hidden Mist, which just so happened to be his teacher, sat down on a log. The man began to explain to him that there was a variety of attacks he was going to teach him. One of which would help him get around objects and attack the person behind the object. This caught Alexander’s attention, for the fact that would be a very useful in situations when you had to fight against shields or people who hide behind clones. Alexander then began to take in the thought and liked it more and more. He stood up and then looked at the man and smiled. It was time for them to begin this training. He heaved his massive sword onto his shoulder and then walked forward. He took up a nice battle stance and stared at this man, who was just now getting to his feet. He too had a smile on his face. Alexander knew he needed a shield of some sort, so Alexander would provide him with one. Alexander began to perform hand seals and summoned water clones around him. Only five were summoned and the man smiled. He performed his own hand seals and summoned five clones of water. The man then explained that the object of this training would be to hit the person behind the clone and not actually hit the clone. Looking at the man he awaited the next piece of instruction.

The man told him that he needed to use the dragon strike, and using his chakra, control the attack itself. Alexander smiled and then took a deep breath, he figured that he could do that, maybe not at first, but he could do that. The man raised his sword, the training was beginning. Alexander was behind a clone and he unleashed his attack. The attack came flying at him and Alexander jumped backwards. It looked like it was going to hit the clone, but it didn’t. Almost at the last second the attack came around the clone and towards Alexander. He was surprised at how neat this attack looked. As the attacked approached he would transplant himself behind another clone and the attack would run into the trees that had been behind him. Then Alexander picked his sword up, and would now attempt this attack. He brought the mighty sword, the Masamune, down. He had gathered his chakra around the blade and upon bringing the sword down he had pushed his attack along the path and arc of the sword’s blade.

It was at this point that Alexander used his chakra to try and guide the attack that was cutting through the air. He strained his body trying to control the outgoing attack, while at the same time watch for his teacher’s oncoming attack. Multitasking in combat was needed if one was to survive in this world of battles. Fortunately for Alexander he had a very nice defensive move that allowed him to literally feel oncoming attacks. It was thanks to this jutsu that he moved himself ever so fast and ever so quickly. He brought up once more his mighty sword and saw that his teacher had moved positions to dodge his attack. It was to his dismay however, that he saw that the man’s clone had been infact hit somewhat. Alexander had lost focus somewhere and not controlled the attack as well as he should have. Once more he took another deep breath. Heaving the massive sword of black metal above his head, he lowered it with force. The entire time he extended his chakra into the blade, letting it from around the width of the blade. As he came down with the blade he propelled the chakra off the blade sending it forward through the air. He took one more deep breath and focused his mind. He needed to guide the attack around the clone. He kept his mind on his goal, but at the same time kept himself aware of his teacher’s incoming strike against him. He inhaled a sudden and quick breath and moved himself quickly behind the next clone.

He watched as the attack cleanly miss the clone, as he pulled up on his chakra. This effect had caused the change in path. Alexander smiled and then watched the attack go to where the man had been. Alexander then took notice of where the man was, and to his surprise the man was already coming down with another swing. Alexander countered with his own, and funneled his chakra into his blade, followed up by a swing that shot the chakra attack towards the man. The attack gained speed. Then, by controlling his chakra, he pulled the attack up suddenly at the last moment. This cause the attack to change paths briefly and then go around. The young Kaishin smiled at this and then pushed his body to another location. This time changing location to another area. This allowed him to be in another place just as the previous attack from the man was coming past his clone. The Achilles looked at the man who had his sword up and he swung it at the young Mist Shinobi. The Chuunin struck fast once more, once again channeling his chakra through towards the blade as he struck it towards the man. Then, as the attacks came at them both men simply disappeared from where they both were standing. When they reappeared, they were both standing before one another, in the center of the circle of clones, with their swords on their shoulders.

The scene, two ninja fighting. One a young looking male in what appeared to be black clad armor. The other a man with a scythe. The class of both was high enough to be classified as high Chuunin at least. The man with the scythe was attacking with vicious attacks. The other would dodge, but could not get close to him. The man was attacking with some type energy attack coming out of nowhere. The man was dodging the attack or blocking with his sword. The young boy took a deep breath, the air seemed colder around him than around anywhere else. His breath was seen then his hand came up, more energy filled the area when he did this. The look on his face was clear. He had figured out how the man had been doing this, and now the area was charging with his own energy. It looked like he was about to perform the jutsu itself with his own flare. Who was this young and gentle looking male? Alexander, the Achilles of the Hidden Mist. His eyes locked on the man and wind kicking up around him. He looked at the man and charged him with. The sparring partner took the challenge and slashed the air before him with his scythe. Just as Alexander charged he felt the change in the area due to his own abilities. HE had not focused for a long time on the wind release, and now here he fought it.

The man was able to use the same principles as the Dragon Strike technique, just not as strong. Alexander understood the principles of the jutsu itself and was prepared to try and duplicate them. He focused his chakra around his fingers and looked at the man. He moved out of the way and then slashed the air before him with his fingers that had the chakra wrapped around them. He projected the air before him and sent the chakra flying through the air. The man seemed to be able to sense the attack coming, that was interesting to know. The man brought his staff section up to block the strike. Alexander was not done yet. He gathered more chakra into his hand and transferred it as he grabbed the handle of his blade. He drew the blade fast, the blade coming out facing towards his opponent. He expanded and projected the attack through the air towards the ninja. The man’s eyes opened wide and jumped to the side to dodge. That is exactly what Alexander was hoping he would do. He brought out his sword, the Masamune. He wrapped it’s black metal with his chakra and as the blade came down shot the attack out towards the man.

The man was caught off guard by this sudden change and Alexander could tell. He would take advantage of this. He performed the Dragon Strike]/b] with his smaller blade. Then, using the Masamune, struck the air once more with this new wind style jutsu. He would use both attacks at once, and see how well this man could stand them. He took a deep breath and smiled as the attacks came flying towards the man. He was not done as of yet, he let his mighty sword disappear, sending it back to the area it rested at, his bedroom. He quickly sheathed his sword as the man dodged and blocked the attacks. Now the young Kaishin went into the three sword stance. He jetted forth and unsheathed his swords suddenly. The man went to block the sudden attack, just as Alexander had wanted. He drew one sword suddenly and fast, entering the Killing Blade style. He added this jutsu to the attack, the Katana’s blade was extended by the wind chakra. The man could barely block the first attack, the second attack struck true. Alexander looked, the attack had not be fierce enough. The man had only sustained enough damage to be blown backwards. He had the breath knocked from his body, but Alexander had learnt something.

This jutsu was a good jutsu to use in combination with other attacks. He smiled and sheathed his swords once more. He was able to use numerous attacks, but still he would have to defeat this man somehow. Then the man stood back up and the Achilles slashed the air with his hand, not once, but three times. The man gracefully blocked the strikes, but Alexander had led him into a trap once more. He shushined beside the man and slashed once more. The man took the hit hard to his side as he blocked another incoming attack. As the man was struck he tried one last attack and Alexander simply dodged it. He laid low, then drew his sword with amazing speed. Focusing and using his chakra to extend the blade’s arc itself he watched the attack take off. It sped quickly towards the man. The scythe user tried to block the attack, however he was unable to do so. He was sent flying backwards towards a tree and hit it rather roughly. Alexander took a deep breath and stared at the hurting man. The man smiled and put his scythe up. The man was admitting his defeat. The young Kaishin smiled and nodded showing he accepted. The man took his full standing posture and looked at the Kaishin. He had a look of amazement. Alexander just now understood why. He had just learnt an attack and used it, while in combat. He smiled and scratched his head, he had been so caught up he had not realized that.

The docks. A simple place that he rarely visited unless he was leaving out on a mission or adventure of some sort. He now looked at the sword in which he carried he needed to master this sword. He was unable to even wield it. He reached his hand towards the sword’s handle. Suddenly, a quick shock of electrical energy burst forward from the sword and shocked his hand. He quickly withdrew the burning hand and shook it repeatedly in the air. He then took a deep breath and looked for a small boat. After finding the boat he jumped into the boat and began to row off. He was headed somewhere that he had not been in quite sometime. He began to row outward towards the island that his friend had trained on. He felt the strain of his muscles as he rowed against the current of the waters. The mist was picking up and he stopped rowing, he needed to find his baring. He had been here before, but after so long he would need his compass. He went into his jacket searching for his compass. As he went to the place where he normally kept his compass, he realized something. He could not find it. He went to another pocket, looking and hoping for it there. There was nothing there and he sighed heavily. He looked up, trying to find the sun. Perhaps if he could find the sun, he could find a way to triangulate his position. Alas, the mist in which his village obtained its’ name was too heavy and thick for him to see past.

He sat there wondering how he was going to find his way back. He took a deep breath and then remembered a jutsu that he had learnt a long time back. It was not something he used often, but it could come in handy if he could master the jutsu. He looked, it was not as if he was going anywhere anytime soon. He took another breath and relaxed himself. His hand went into his bag and he pulled out from there a kunai. He placed a kunai in front of him on the small boat. The jutsu would turn this kunai into a compass, this would be the best thing for him to do. He brought his hand up and began to perform hand seals. He allowed his chakra to flux and he began to focus his chakra on the kunai itself. Taking a deep breath back into his body he kept his body calm and focused what he wanted the kunai to do. He wanted it to move in the direction of magnetic north. He imagined his chakra making his kunai magnetically sensitive. He looked at the blade and noticed that it began to move slightly. He inhaled a deep breath, it was a start he supposed. He broke off the connection with the kunai and then relaxed. It would appear that he needed to pushed more chakra into the jutsu itself. He took another deep breath and then began to perform the hand seals once more. His hand seals would allow him to access his chakra reserves, thus allowing him to perform the jutsu.

He took a breath, his lung filling with air as he did so. Then he focused his mind, allowing his imagination to take hold and direct the path he wished for the jutsu to follow. He closed his eyes and knew that the jutsu was to charge the kunai which was in front of him. After it did so, he would be able to use the charged kunai as a compass. Doing this would allow him to find magnetic north, from which he could gain his sense of direction and find his way back to the village. He took a deep breath and channeled more chakra into the jutsu. He looked at the kunai and noticed it was charged with his chakra. He proceeded to pushing more chakra into the jutsu and watched as the kunai began to move on by its own movement. He knew that this was what he had been aiming for, now he just had to keep the jutsu up long enough to find his way back. The mist was still very thick, he needed this jutsu to stay up as long as he could keep it. He funneled more chakra into the mouth of the hungry jutsu, which ate the chakra happily. Alexander was happy in the fact that he had a backup jutsu, should he need to find his direction. He looked into the mist and sighed. He would have to find Nyustukyi’s island another day. For now, he would simply move along and find his own way back to the village.

Perhaps it was best this way. Nyustukyi had done some hardcore training on that island. Alexander would have to honor the memory of his friend by doing so as well. He thought about it. Right now he did not know anything he really needed to train by himself. His sword style would have to be taught to him by his teacher, the Swordsman of the Hidden Mist. Alexander saw the compass starting to falter and focused more chakra into the jutsu itself. He would keep his thoughts on the jutsu and finding his way back to the village. Once he was back home, he would worry about the other small things. He took a deep breath and felt the strain on his body from keeping the jutsu up. It was a relatively small drain on his chakra, but still he wondered how he could use this jutsu in combat, or if he could at all. He did not know when a compass would come in handy, but it may come in handy on a mission. That is should he find himself lost. Based off the positioning of the kunai he knew where magnetic north was. Using this knowledge he could base himself and find the village, or at least a way out of this mist. Once that was done, he could find his way back to the village. He rowed himself a little ways further and heard noises ahead. He glanced forward and saw the lights of the village. He was back home it seemed. He turned to glance behind him. He would find his friend’s training ground one day. With that he picked up the kunai, the shock of a static charge greeted his fingers. He smiled, he would have to take note of that. He then placed his kunai back where it came from and began to row towards the harbor and the village.

Alexander, the Achilles of the Hidden Mist, stood before a team of Genin. These were fresh graduates of the academy and he was going to see how well they were in hand to hand combat. Being a Chuunin, this was one of his many duties. He now stood there and watched the three take up a fighting stance. He would gage their abilities and see just what they were able to do. He took a deep breath and watched the first one, a young male, come running at him. The male jumped into the air and threw a punch, to which Alexander simply jumped backwards. Then Alexander saw that the boy was performing hand seals. It would seem that they wanted to do this one on one. He had no problem with that, but they really should work together. The young boy put his hands together and perform a simply water jutsu. Alexander dodged and jumped into the air, his hands coming together to weave their own string of seals. He was going to try out a new jutsu that he had not used before. He focused his mind and began to gather the chakra into his fist. He remembered when he had practiced using this jutsu before. He had held his chakra in his hand like a ball. Then he had focused and directed the attack towards a single target. He had taken aim at a log at the time and focused in his mind the attack itself. He had gathered the chakra up and then sent his arm outright. Outstretching the limb in the direction he wanted the attack to go. The he had released the attack forward and watched the stream shoot outwards.

He remembered that the attack had failed to reach his target. This was because the jutsu at the time was only able to hit a target at the distance of five meters. Even then, when he was near the target at five meters, the attack was not a certain thing to hit. He took a deep breath and brought himself back to the present. He was still in the air and the Genin male was below him. He moved forward, moving towards his opponent. The male moved and went to throw a punch. Alexander was now within range for sure and he outstretched his arm. He focused his mind and funneled his chakra into the jutsu. The static and then electric charge took hold in his hand. The lightning release jutsu came to life and he shot the jutsu at the young boy. He was holding back the strength of the jutsu. It would not do as lot of damage, but the boy would feel it however. Alexander watched the lightning snake around and hit his target. The boy let out a gasp of air as the current went through his body. Alexander was not someone who used the lightning release a lot. In fact he had spent most of his time learning how to make a defense against the release. This did not mean however, that he could not attack with it. The young Kaishin watched as the boy was sent into the air, but only briefly. The boy landed easily enough and Alexander could see that the boy’s face was wincing from the brief shock he had endured. Alexander had not actually used the jutsu to full power like he could have had. He turned, something had alerted him and he noticed that the other two Genin were making their move.

Both of them were females, but the Chuunin would pay no mind to this. Females or not, they were still ninja. More than that they were Shinobi of the Hidden Mist Village. Alexander watched as both threw kunai at him, to which he dodged. Then both performed their own hand seals and he watched one perform senbon of earth, the other senbon of wind. The Achilles of the Hidden Mist was somewhat impressed by this team work. Still he put his mind to the task and performed the hand seals for the jutsu once more. He quickly transported himself near the young girls and targeted the one with the earth senbon. The females quickly took notice of him and fired their jutsu. Alexander answered this attack by moving quickly once more, this time putting himself within range. He focused his chakra again and then outstretched his hand. He focused his mind on the jutsu he was about to perform. He would control it as best he could. After all, he was not in this fight to kill, maim, or seriously injured any of these Genin. He was merely here to gage them. He unleashed his chakra and with it the jutsu. He watched as the charged chakra seemingly took life and jolted towards the female earth user. The girl was hit with the blast and sent stumbling backwards. She fell down from the shock coursing through her body. Alexander then turned his attention towards the final Genin, the wind user female.

It was at this moment that he would find, to his surprise, that she was preparing another attack. He could still tell however, that she was still somewhat nervous. He smiled and then moved his body. She had the drop on him, in terms of preparation of the next attack. She had a few seconds on him. Still, nevertheless, his hands were weaving and and unlocking just the right amount of chakra he needed. He was preparing his body, not only for her jutsu, but for his as well. He took a deep breath and saw that she was doing the same. Then he watched her open her mouth and exhale the deep breath she had just inhaled. He smiled, this was a very strong jutsu for a Genin to know. He moved his body however, and then focused his mind towards his goal. He increased the amount of chakra he was gathering, then looked at the female. He formed the chakra into a ball in his fists and then outstretched his arms, he was close enough. With this movement he had placed himself within range and now he was going to attack her. He expelled his chakra from his body and propelled it forward towards the female. The jutsu took flight and he watched as it cut through the air and approached the female. Alexander watched as the female knew she could do nothing to stop this attack. She braced herself and she was hit with the charged chakra. She let out a small scream and fell backwards. He smiled, the attack was not a big one, but it was just enough to defeat these three. Then he looked, the other two moved close to her. They picked her up and looked at Alexander. Did they really want to fight him some more? He took a deep breath, he would oblige them. This time however, he would see how strong they really were.

As the wind blew through a training field in the Mist Village. It would breeze through four people standing on this field. Three of them were Genin, the fourth, a Chuunin. Alexander, the Achilles of the Hidden Mist, stood there as the Chuunin. He was measuring the combative skills of the younger Genin. So far they had shown him one thing, that they could take a blast of electricity, nothing more. They were now standing up and by the looks of it they were going to try teamwork. Alexander relaxed his shoulders and looked on in curiosity. He wanted to actually see what they could do as a team. He took a deep breath and looked on as they began their movements. They moved fast at first impressing the Kaishin. They had been blasted by lightning but yet could still moved that fast. Alexander saw that one of the females was performing hand seals. He watched as two clones of earth took shape. The male held his fist close and threw it hard at Alexander. The other female threw two kunai at him. He saw their plan of attack. The two attacking him would put him off balance while the third’s clones would attack him. Very nice attack pattern and would work on a lesser experienced shinobi. The Achilles looked up and jumped backward quickly and dodged the first two attack. He had brought up his own hands and started to perform hand seals. This time he would target the clones with his attacks. To defeat them he would add more chakra to the same attack. The extra strength added to the charge should be enough to overpower the earth clones.

He focused himself and gathered his chakra into his hands. Then pushing them forward in the air he expelled the pent up chakra. It erupted forth from his hands and struck true against the clones and they seemingly took the hit. It took a bit more out of them it seems then they thought it would. Being earth style clones the lightning really had no effect upon their bodies. What was having the effect upon them was the power behind his attack. He looked at the clones, now moving slower. They were still charging and Alexander could tell that so were the Genin. He took a deep breath and dodged a punch from one of the clones. He jumped and dodged another attack, a kick, from the clone. He took a deep breath and performed more hand seals, at point blank range he could hit the clones with enough strength that they might not be able to withstand the attack. Alexander gathered his chakra up once more into his hands and focused. Then he pushed his hands out once more towards the clones. His chakra then pushed itself out onto the battlefield. The clones were struck by the jutsu and pushed backwards. The Chuunin pushed more chakra into the attack and watched the clones seemingly wirth in pain. Alexander smiled and stood up as he watched the clones go to a knee. It appeared that it was going to take more than just a few hits to hurt these clones.

He knew it had a lot to do with the element the Genin had chosen as the substance of the clones. If it had been, say water, the clones would have been defeated easily. If they had been mist, ice, or snow clones, the attack may be enough to dispel them. Alexander looked at the downed clones and planned his next attack. However, before he could performed his move he felt a cold feeling on the back of his neck. The Frozen Mist jutsu telling him of an incoming attack. He dodged the attack and jumped backwards. He gathered his chakra up once more and then began to focus himself. He was going to do it again. This time the clones would hopefully go away. He took a deep breath and the exhaled the breath. His hands coming up and beginning to string along the signs of the zodiac. Then he pushed his hands forward once more and focused his chakra into his hands. He pushed his chakra once more from his hands and towards the clones. The chakra took the shape of lightning and he watched the attack fly from his hands towards the copies of the lower ranking shinobi. Alexander was pushing more chakra into the mouth of the hungry jutsu this time. The jutsu just seemingly took the chakra happily and hungrily. The Achilles of the Hidden Mist, then watched the increased amount of chakra taken effect in the jutsu. The jutsu was much stronger than the previous versions of the jutsu. Alexander could just tell by how the lightning streams moved.

The young Kaishin, though not naturally attuned with the lightning release, was now wielding the attack as if he was. The lightning based jutsu struck the clones and he watched their faces seemingly twist in reaction to the jolt of chakra hitting their earthen bodies. Alexander stood up as he watched the next events unfold. The clones tried to stand up, to resist the pain. In the end they were unable to and returned to their original form. Alexander smiled and stood there watching the Genin move around him. Their first and second plan had failed. If he had been them he would have attacked as he stood up and watched the clones. Still they were probably being cautious about him. After all, he was a Mist Village ninja. Not only that but he was a shinobi of the rank of Chuunin. They would do wise to be on the guard with him. He then performed his hand seals quickly once more. Then taking aim at the Genin his pooled his chakra into his hands. Then he pushed his chakra outwards towards his target. He would make sure to live up to their expectations of him to the best of his abilities. Alexander inhaled another deep breath and stood there watching them. They were dodging him and moving around trying not to get hit by the lightning stream. If they did, this stronger version of the stream would cause more than bruising. It would cause burn marks for sure, and they would be smart to avoid any type of damage in combat. At least he knew he did, unless he had no other choice.

Alexander, the Achilles of the Hidden Mist, had just defeated the clones that a Genin he was testing had just used to attack him. He had been impressed by the Genin’s moves but not to the point to where he was overwhelmed. The Chuunin now stood before the three Genin and watched their movements. They had been subjected to lightning attacks that had shocked their very core. Even now they were weakened and tired. Still they tried to prove their worth to him, and more importantly, themselves. The young Kaishin stood before them as they all drew kunai, this was going to now go from hand to hand and jutsu to weapons and jutsu it seemed. He smiled and thought about drawing a sword or two against the little ones and thought against it. He was rather skilled in armed combat, and this time he would just try something else. He had not just reserved himself to using jutsus only in quite some time. He would try it now against these three. He took a deep breath and picked a jutsu out to fit this occasion. He watched their movements and then added his own to the fold. He brought his hands up, it was time for another jutsu from the lightning release. He took another deep breath and then began to send his chakra out into the area around him.

He then felt the current in his hand and placed his hands onto the ground. He sent a wave into the ground below him and watched as the wave of lightning ripped through the land. He was not trying to over do it, but he was trying to hit the Genin with a small blast. The attack took off and he smiled as the Genin were made aware of the jutsu. Alexander, always cunning, moved his body suddenly and positioned himself once more in front of the new location of the Genin team. He laughed a little bit to himself as he performed the hand seals again. He would once again try and catch them off guard. He placed his hands back on the ground and sent another wave of lightning into the ground. This time he sent the main blast towards one of the females of the Genin team. This female was on guard it seemed, and rightly so. Her movements were sudden and before he knew it, she was beside him. He was amused that she had progressed to the point of knowing that kind of movement technique. However, this movement did not take him off guard and he too moved suddenly. This time at a greater distance than before. She would have lost sight of him, even more so since he was now in her blind spot. His hands came up once more and he began to gather his chakra into his hands. He focused and felt the chakra current in his hand. The Lightning wave was ready to bound outwards.

He placed his hands down once more and pushed the lightning style jutsu into the ground towards the other female, the entire time he faced the previous female. It was a fake on his part. It seemed they took it almost as soon as his hands touched the ground. The female he was facing jumped into the air and he smiled. The electric current with towards its true target. The second female was caught off guard by the attack. Surprise was in her eyes as the attack touched her skin and she was jolted. She let out a soft scream as she fell backwards. The male rushed to her aid, and Alexander smiled. The attack was not strong enough to cause her major damage. He had reduced the amount of chakra in it, thus reducing the damage. His gaze now fell upon the other female who was now charging him. He kunai came forth from her hand, she had thrown it. Alexander moved quickly, much quicker than a sprint. He now looked at her and brought his hands up once more, this time he was going to use the jutsu on her partners. He gathered his chakra once more and began to increase it constantly. Two of them would take more chakra, that was a given. He rushed her with the chakra still in his hands. Then he pushed his hands into the ground and lowered his body.

This movements dodged the kunai and he brought his feet up to do a standing flip kick at the Genin. That was what it seemed like at least, but his real goal had already been accomplished. He had touched the ground with his hands, that is what he wanted to do. Now the chakra took hold in the ground and he watched as it erupted towards the two downed Genin. Something was off however, he did not feel the touch of skin on the bottom of his feet. Had he missed? No, that was not it, she had dodged. He spun himself to bring himself into the ready position to fight. He looked and saw the other female had her hands on the ground. He looked towards where she was looking. The other two. She had brought up a rock wall in front of them. She had read his movements huh? Smart one, they watched as the lightning jutsu hit the rock wall. The rock wall resisted but in the end was cracked and cut in half it seemed. Alexander looked at the female, she was smarter than most to pick up on his true intentions. As for Alexander, he had done a rather nice combination with the lightning jutsu and a taijutsu based attack he would say.

He took one more deep breath and brought his hands up, this time the female went to her friends. The three of them prepared themselves for the attack. Alexander felt something behind him and dodged. A kunai flew by him. He completed his hand seals and struck the ground sending his electric current into the ground once more towards the owner of the kunai. He watched the current connect with another rock wall. This time he had attack in earnest and the rock wall had been destroyed. Alexander looked at his opponents, it was another group of Genin. These Genin however he had faced numerous times before. He took a deep breath, this sparring match would have to be put on hold. These guys were troublesome and would require him to actually concentrate. He looked at the other Genin and held his hand up, they would stay there. He was going to really show them how he actually fought for a quick second. He cracked his knuckles and neck. Time he got somewhat serious.

Shield of lightning
Rank: C
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Causes lightning to strike nearby targets (Up to 5 meters) to the user.
Special: Dragon, Ox
Drawback: The concentrated strikes of lightning close to the user will easily give away the users location, making stealth impossible. This will only stop projectile metals (Like kunai and shuriken) taijutsu, and certain projectile ninjutsu, such as rocks and wood. The user must concentrate on targets, so if they don't see some kunai coming at them from behind, then the lightning won't hit them, and the user will take some kunai to the back!
Description: The user performs the handseals, and then focuses on targets around him/her. Lightning will strike the target. The user must be prepared to react fast to stop oncoming projectiles/taijutsu. The lightning can hit anything within a 5 meter radius of the user.
Limit: Lightning release

Alexander now stood facing three Genin, that had given him trouble since before he had been promoted to Chuunin. He now looked on them and was rather annoyed. He had been testing the skills of the other Genin, when these three interlopers had interfered with his gaging process. Now he would return the favor and he looked on as they began to fan out. Two males and a female, and he knew the female to be the leader, or at least the one to last longer than the other two. He smiled and moved fast as well. Their kunai came out and he quickly dodged them. The first male who was build like a bull came at him. The Achilles caught his blow and countered with an elbow to the collarbone, this sent the male backwards. The male did a flip and caught himself once more in the upright fighting position. Alexander smiled, he knew it would be that easy. He waited and here they come, this time all three. He had an idea, and he waited for all three to get within his range. They each got closer to him, it appeared as if they were going to try some sort of taijutsu move on him. He waited and watched and they got closer to him. He gathered his chakra into the area around him and took deep breaths. Then after gathering all his chakra he began to focus himself. This next jutsu would be something he didn’t do all to often.

The team was now in range and his hand seals came up. A string of zodiac symbols was weaved and then he expelled outwards his chakra in a massive push. The lightning jutsu that came forth lite up the surrounding area around him with lightning. The jutsu he had just used was a lightning shield and he watched as the three Genin were caught up in the jutsu. He pictured it like a giant bug zapper. The three Genin were jolted by the jutsu and jumped backwards once it had ended. He had not done much but it had been enough. He ran forward and watched the first one throw a punch at him. This male had muscles that was for sure, and Alexander blocked the punch and landed a kick. Then the second male came behind him, he blocked the attack and placed a knee into his stomach. The female came in and he caught her in midair and threw her into the other male. Then he performed a sudden string of hand seals. The third member of the Genin team came rushing from behind. The stronger male was trying to spear him. Alexander jumped over his head and watched him stopped near his team mates. All were still within his range and he sent out his chakra once more. Charging the entire area with his chakra. Then he focused his mind and pictured what exactly he wanted. He would light the entire area up.

He sent his chakra outwards again and watched as the area around him erupted in lightning. The three Genin still caught in his sphere of influence were jolted once more and sent flying backwards. He smiled, and gathered up more chakra. They were trying really hard to hit him all at once. Still he knew how to stop this and he caught his breath. This was a rather interesting defensive technique, that while he had learnt it, had not used in quite sometime. He now looked at the three Genin who were judging the best way to attack him, and he simply smiled. He had not as of yet, went on the offensive. He wondered how exactly he would. He smiled and watched the Genin. This time they came at him once more, except the female, she began to weave a string of hand seals. She brought forth clones of earth and rock and he smiled. He would test the attack out against those things too huh? They all came at him at once and his hands began to form more once more then hand seals of the zodiac. He smiled as they entered his range of attack and then he pushed his chakra outwards once more. The attack took shape as his mind focused and he thought about what he wanted to happened. He pictured it in his mind, the area around him for five meters would light up with an electric current.

Alexander smiled as that actually happened and he saw the entire area come to life. The two male Genin were hit with the jutsu and sent backwards. The rock clones however, were seemingly unphased by the shield of lightning. These clones were much stronger than the other Genin’s clones had been. Perhaps this attack was not as strong as the other lightning jutsu. Nonetheless, Alexander would not stand for them interfering with his tests. He dodged the attacks of the clones and charged forwards towards the three Genin. He would go on the offensive with a defensive move. He got in between the three of them and began his hand seals. On his way up to them he had gathered his chakra up. Now he was going to perform his jutsu and he took a deep breath. He was within two meters of them,and judging by their reactions they knew what was about to happen. His chakra filled the area and then he let loose with his jutsu. In his mind he pictured the jutsu and watched it happened around him. Around him, for five meters out, the entire area was filled with an electric current and anything caught within it was shocked and jolted. The three Genin included and he watched them fall backwards. He took a deep breath and smiled. It appeared they could not withstand his defensive jutsu at this close of a range.
